441: THE MARVELS Breakdown with that Skrull - Paul Warren

Who animated the iconic BOBA FETT in THE STAR WARS HOLIDAY SPECIAL? John Celestri! John joins us in a fascinating discussion on the inception and animation of “The Faithful Wookiee” animated short from The Star Wars Holiday Special. Since he was the senior animator at Nelvana Studios, John had his pick of characters from the special, so he took on Boba Fett, of course. Our discussion includes answers to burning questions: Exactly which Moebius designs propelled the look of “The Faithful Wookiee”? How does one animate a helmeted character with no eyes or mouth? Why do all the characters, including Han, Leia, and Luke, only have 4 fingers on each hand?      John Celestri just released a fascinating book with the animation script and character model sheets.

427: Classic Marvel STAR WARS Comics #42 "THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK" Adaptation Part 4

   I miss Eddie Murphy!     Haunted Mansion is in my top three attractions at the Disney parks. I enjoyed Eddie Murphy’s Haunted Mansion (2003). I absolutely loved Muppets Haunted Mansion. We have Haunted Mansion Christmas tree ornaments! Can you imagine how excited I was to see this new iteration of HAUNTED MANSION?     It saddens me to say this version lost me from the beginning. It was very hard to root for the protagonist when you think he’s a jerk. Let’s back up here and summarize the uninspired plot. Single mother Gabbie (Rosario Dawson) and her nine-year old son Travis (Chase Dillon) move into the mansion with the hopes of turning it into a bed and breakfast. Very quickly they realize the house is haunted! However, they never appear frightened when freaky occurrences happen such as when a suit of armor suddenly appears right behind them. I don’t know about you but at that point I’d be scrambling for my car keys!     Father Kent (Owen Wilson) pops into the story and enlists the help of grieving astrophysicist Ben (LaKeith Stanfield). We then take a Wizard of Oz detour as the two enlist more help from psychic Harriet (Tiffany Haddish) and then visit haunted house historian Prof. Bruce Davis (Danny Devito) only to steal his blueprints to the mansion. When that plan goes awry, Davis ends up joining the ghost buster group. Now this overpacked cast has to rid the house of the ghosts and the ghost that is haunting the ghosts!           When Ben arrives at the mansion with his camera that can photograph dark matter, he is paid $2,000 for his services. He doesn’t believe any of these hauntings are real so he couldn’t even be bothered to take actual pictures but instead make a “click” sound with his mouth. That is what I meant when I said it is hard to root for a protagonist who I think is a jerk. If you’re not going to do the work then give Gabbie back her $2,000! This really irritated me.      No Direction!     Maybe this film was just too big for director Justin Simien (“Dear White People,” “Bad Hair&quot;). Performances were out of sync with the scenes.      If it’s a scary scene, the characters should be frightened, not just slightly taken aback. With a dream team cast like this who can work circles around this material, you have to look towards the director for bringing the right reactions from the scene. Rosario Dawson has nothing to do in the film, but if two or three characters had been cut out (or more to the point SHOULD have been cut out) it would have given her something to do.      Another A-lister in the cast is Jared Leto as the Hatbox ghost. He was a CGI character and when he spoke there was so much reverb you couldn’t understand what he was saying. They could’ve saved even more by cutting out the unnecessary cameos. I was excited to see Dan Levy but his insignificant role as a counterpart to Winona Ryder’s tour guide at Crump Manor took away more than it gave.          When the fi
